Event Coverage Jalopyrama Hot Rod Show MAY 8, POST PICS HERE!

Dr Manley!

 

They had an "active shooter" on rt 50. I think it's cleared out now...

 

......Hope that's the case, but it will take hours for the traffic issues to resolve.

 

Damn, I was getting ready to leave. The rain stopped. Looks like it’s a crawl all the way to the bridge.

 

......I'll re-check the cameras around noon. I believe that the incident (apparently a stand-off) is still going on. If traffic doesn't improve by then, I may bow out. One ***-hole screws up life for thousands.

 

Still ongoing at #50 on Kent Island according to WTOP.

 

Is traffic tied up eastbound or westbound?

 

I bailed ☹️ Rained all morning . Shoulda , woulda , coulda !! ☹️

 

As far as I can tell it’s East bound mainly. I did hear about some west bound delays but can’t confirm.
The last time I heard the East bound back up went from 4 to 6 miles from the tolls.

 

Bay bridge info: 1-877-229-7726

 

Things are apparently improving.

 

A few live shots.

Lanes open but still a long back up. I might head out at 12:30 or so if you want to try it.

I wussed out. Still back ups in both directions. Oh well, the Showdown is next week!

 

Here are a few more pics. Some of the same cars, different angles...

 

Another fantastic event by Mike and the rest of the Rusty Nuts, despite the p***ing rain showers and the Bay Bridge being shut down from 5:00 Am until after Noon. We alt-routed around the top of the Bay and arrived at 9:30 instead of 8 AM, but still worth the extra miles!

 

Lotsa wood. Thanks for putting the photos up guys.

 

Thanks for posting the pictures. WOW! Looks like a good turn out with lots of great cars. Wish I could have been there. Cheers to everybody who braved the weather, and other drama to get there and represent.

 

I have a ton of pics. Will post at some point.

 

.........I made it. Watched the cameras and when I saw traffic moving ever so slightly in St. Margarets, I took a shower and left at 12:30. It was stop and go once I got to the Arnold exit and until I got on the bridge. Made it there at 2:00. Nice selection of cars inside, lots of cars outside had left due to the weather. One deluge while I was there, then some sunshine until I headed home. Got caught in a torrential wind blown rain, but sunshine once again by the time I got to the bridge.

 

................Scott, the '39 looked great inside.

 

Good job! I made it about 5 miles from the house and had visions of stop and go traffic and made a u turn. Patience is not one of my virtues.

 

............I hear you.

 

Thanks for the photos. More please.lol. Snowman

 

We had 15 Woodies inside including a very rare Willys one.

 

It was a tough haul getting u to the show - took almost 4hurs longer t get there and that was with some lucky breaks and some kind hearted Maryland hot rodders who helped us get t the she after Rt 50 was shut down . Smaller than usual turnout due t weather and traffic but the show itself was stellar and nothing could diminish that. Nice work, guys!

 

My turn. Got some "color selection" photos.
